It's a blatant move to secure access for commercial gain. If morons dumping or being general morons is the reason for the gate then access would have been cut off years ago. When it happens in conjunction with a commercial operation it is a cynical move to force the public to use that commercial operation to access the area, both the private land which I have no problem with, but also the public which I do.
A lot will depend on where the gate is though
